[2] Augspurger battled injury through his first year as a full time USA sevens resident, which led to missing out on the 7's RWC in Russia, 2013.
In 2013, Nate played with the New York City 7's in the inaugural World Club Series Sevens tournament at Twickenham.
He was the first player to score a try in the tournament against the Western Province, and the NYC 7's went on to win the Plate Championship.
Mike Friday, the new USA Sevens Head Coach, selected Augspurger for the World Series Circuit in 2015 to Hong Kong and Japan.
He was also a member of the same sevens team that won a bronze medal at the 2015 Pan American Games.
[3] Augspurger then was offered a full-time resident contract with the sevens team from 2015-2016 leading up to the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics.
After that tournament, Augspurger made a code switch from Sevens to fifteens where he continued his USA rugby career.
He received his second cap against Russia that summer and that fall played scrum-half against the NZ Maori All Blacks (non test), Romania, and Tonga.
The Eagles went on to win the 2017 ARC Championship against the Argentina XV, where he started on the wing and was named the captain.
The USA qualified for the 2019 World Cup that summer, beating Canada in the second test in San Diego, California.
He started every match, both at scrum half and at wing for new Eagles Head Coach Gary Gold.
At the Rugby World Cup, Augspurger missed out against England and France, but then was selected off the bench for the Argentina and Tonga matches.
